    Yeah man. Pretty excited now it's all coming together hey. Always wanted a 7 string as well, gotta adjust to using a Floyd to rest against though

    should be sweet once its set up. Might take some tweaks but you will get there. Don't overtighten the string lock screws, I snapped a thread on a PBG 6 string floyd tremelo. Just make sure the block with the string groove is facing the correct way and there's plenty of string in contact with the block

    Looking amazing mate. Giving me lots of inspo for my 7 when it comes.

    That top came up awesome too. What happened to your candy-d tele? I loved the look of it

    Thanks guys. Nick, she's all done. I'll snap a few pics in the morning and put them up. Completely slipped my mind sorry mate.

    Wow that's amazing Andrew! How many coats of clear did you spray? I'm a huge fan of mirror finishes. Hehe

    Thanks man. It's got 4 over the candy, 2 mist coats, one medium wet and one full wet. I needed a bit more coverage as the marbling process creates an uneven finish so needed to fill the gaps. After that it was knocked right back so it was flat with 800 wet and dry, shot one more layer pretty heavy, slightly over reduced, wet sanded with 2000 and polished. If you were clearing over a solid colour just skip the last coat. I just needed to flatten it all out.
